If Jimmy Page takes the time, effort and $ to fly from England to Japan to show Mr. Jimmy Sakurai some love, respect and genuine praise, than clearly Mr. Jimmy Sakurai deserves AT LEAST a thumbs up 👍🏼
Just have to wonder what was going on in Jimmy's mind to see and hear somebody that looked like him, moved like him and played like him. Imitation is the most sincerest form of flattery.
This man has dedicated his life to paying tribute to Jimmy. He deserves every bit of credit he gets. Not only for having great taste but for being an astounding player.
Wish I could have met him, when he played for Jason Bonham's band when they opened for peter Frampton, in Chicago this past summer was lucky enough to get a front row seat, but not a backstage pass...first time I've seen both bands. But missed the first 2 opening numbers, because I had to go through the metal detectors as usual....great show though....keep up the good work J.S. ...wish you could come back to Chicago....with your own band.
This musician is keeping the Led Zeppelin experience ongoing for those individuals who were not able to see the band perform live. The live experience is another important aspect of the music along side the wonderful compositions preserved on record. Just like you would go see a performance of Chopin’s music by a professional pianist, Jimmy is doing the same for Led Zeppelin. And he’s doing it at the highest standard possible that his talent and work ethic will allow. You can’t ask for more than that.
Being a Led Zeppelin nut since a little kid. I was inspired by Jimmy Page to play guitar. I got a call 3 years ago that Robert Plant wanted to do a surprise show in New Orleans before playing an arena the following night. I was suggested to play with him. 10am in the morning knowing about it all day I could not tell anyone. About 9 pm he came into a packed club called BJs here and he was ready to start to sing. Wow. My Hero right there next to me. No Zeppelin songs only Blues. For close to 2 hours we played with other members of his band and me on guitar next to him the whole time. He rocked my back like he did with Jimmy I was literally in Heaven. A huge smile on my face the whole show. After we did the last number he said That was fun mate. We hung out back of the club for about 30 minutes until he and his entourage had to leave. It was refreshing to talk abut life and not just music. An amazing event in my life. :)
u lucky BASTARD! i would KILL to meet & talk to 1 of my 4 idols! but i will have to settle for being in the same room as jimmy & robert....when they played at the local concert hall back in the 90s. but it is the highlight of my life, so far. you've done very well, to say the least!
Jeff Guitar Nelson i dont think rock n roll is dead just needs new inventions most things you can do with a standerd tuned gutair has in most caces has aready been taken by someone else i have some great things and instruments that i made myself that would work great for rock i roll music i can not tell you what it is but i invented an instrument that sounds like a race car going threw the timeing and i can also do it at different speeds and it is not at all drums like john bonh did
What year was that? I know he played at Jazz Fest too, in 2014, I believe. Did you know Jimmy was married to a lady from Metairie? Patricia Ecker Page.
I'm just imagining Page that night, probably holding back a few tears at not only hearing how much heart Mr. Jimmy put in his creations, but just being transported back to a time we ALL know he misses so much, when he was without question the greatest guitarist on the planet.
I saw him play with Jason Bonham in San Jose last year and I gotta he deserves every ounce of praise for his ability to recreate Jimmy’s playing! So jealous but so happy for a fellow Jimmy Page fan!
Mr. Sakurai's singer on Black Dog nailed Robert Plant's vocals ( I'm sure Mr. Page noticed that as well!) As for Jimmy Sakurai- I would've been nervous but highly honored that my guitar hero was watching me up close and personal.😅😅😅😅😅
I just came across this video on Facebook, so I went to TH-cam and watch this video, the video is awesome. I had a smile on my face almost the whole time watching the video. Seeing Jimmy Page rocking out, clapping hands, and even standing ovations. Jimmy looks so happy to meet you. Dazed and confused was amazing and I could tell Jimmy was well pleased. Since I've been loving you was great, I wish I could have heard the whole song that's my favorite Led Zeppelin song. I saw you Jimmy when you were with LEDZEPAGAIN I do believe it was in Newport Beach several years ago in California. You are fantastic. My wife and I met Jimmy Page we flew to London to see the Led Zeppelin 02 to arena concert in 2007, the concert was amazing My dream comes true to see Led Zeppelin. When we met Jimmy Page, he was very friendly and polite, I got to take a photograph with him. Led Zeppelin forever! Armando from California 8.16.23
Jimmy Page, a totally gracious and encouraging mentor! Mr. Jimmy knocked it out of the park, what a tribute. I remember teen years in the 70's, playing in my room, imagining being in a big arena, right with my musical idols. This must have been a singular experience of a lifetime to play in front of such a musical legend. Simply WOW.
This is an incredible dream come true for any guitarist who loves Jimmy Page. 😻 Congratulations, Mr. Jimmy! You made Jimmy Page just as happy as he made you happy that night. Hope to see you perform live some day. 👍👍👍👍👍
One of the things Jimmy Page would do in Tokyo in particular was to go the record shops to find bootlegs of live shows. Some shop keepers would hide the bootlegs thinking that he was angry, but actually he wants to find every archived live recording he can. Jimmy Sakurai is living many guitarist's dream of just *being* Jimmy Page. So cool!
This is true! He loves collecting all the LZ boots. Somewhere online is a pic of him standing with the owner of the Empress Valley boot company. Jimmy loves this stuff and seems to have never been angry with those who are trading his old shows.
Page is so humble! Imagine how kind of him to go out to see someone playing and living life as whole tribute to his art. I felt very happy for both, specially to Mr. Jimmy. After all his dedication and hours and hours of practice, being able to see his lifetime Idol, in person watching him play with a smile on his face, it’s priceless!!! As die hard can of Zepp, and specially Zoso… l am also satisfied! It means our Guitar God is not only a phenomenal artist but also a beautiful soul. Keep on Rockin’ Mr. Jimmy. Thank you for giving to our guitar hero an incredible gift.
This is indeed the greatest tribute a guitarist can have while still being alive this must be chilling to Page to listen what he did in his youth when someone is recreating it it must be an indescribable feeling.
Unbelievable. I’ve never seen such recreation and tribute to a legend being played with such skill. A moment in time, sweet perfection and natural flow . Absolutely amazing.
This guy's got Jimmy Page down the whole nine yards of talent, including his outfits Pagy wore in live concerts. Bless the soul of that man 🎶🎵🎶🎵🤟😲 Woohoo!
I JUST LOVE HIM , JIMMY PAGE DOES TOO. WHAT GUITARIST HAD HIS LEGEND EXTENDED WITH THE PERMISSION AND AS A FAN. Cmon Mr Jimmy is hear to extend the Zeppelin feeling LIVE
Wow, an amazing tribute for all the work you, Mr Jimmy, have put into studying Jimmy Page's musicality and stage moves - really quite moving to see and no wonder Jimmy Page showed such admiration. A fantastic story.
Fabulous…. I have been a Led Zeppelin fan for over 40 years, play guitar also only Jimmy Page material. Not to your standards of course but how amazing that must have been for Mr Jimmy when in walked Jimmy Page himself. Quite a night great show lovely to watch❤
I found the Japanese philosophy in the beginning very interesting. It puts Jimmy Sakurai in context as a true admirer and dedicated follower of Zeppelin and Page. Not just an actor playing a historical character.
I agree with you Michael. I'm 63 now and been a Page and Zep fan since I first heard them. When I was 12 my cousin played Heartbreaker and Livin' Lovin" Maid and I haven't looked back. I love all the guitar greats but something about Jimmy seems to put him a head above the rest, even Hendrix, SRV, and Clapton. Btw, I saw Clapton in 1978 in Portland, OR. Cost me $8.50, lol. I've been playing or I should say playing with a guitar since I was 5. I have 9. I can play Stairway from beginning to end but it sounds nothing like Jimmy, lol. This guy is great. Can you imagine playing Zep songs in a small venue with Jimmy watching you. Wow!!! Nuff said.
I think Mr Jimmy has all the confidence in the world ,but this night he must have been nervous,feeling his hero watching his performance,but still did a great job.
What a thrilling evening this must have been for both Jimmys. As for Jimmy Page, it’s like he’s essentially seeing himself in concert, in person. And he just gets to sit back and enjoy it
I saw Zep back in MSG in 70's a few times.....then again with Page/Plant tour 94-95, Jimmy Sakurai has studied & captured the essence of JP live riffing, shredding & presence on stage. His uncanny sense of timing, eclectic style, spontaneous energy, stance, approach.....all mirror Jimmy's best live work. It is a worthy lifetime achievement. To meet & be evaluated by the master himself must be incredible honor.....for both men. long live JP....long live Jimmy Sakurai.
What a great story. I've seen both Jimmys play live. Mr. Page with The Firm, at the ARMS benefit for Ronnie Lane, in the 80s, and with Robert Plant on their first 'Unledded' tour, and Jimmy Sakurai with his former band, Led Zepagain. Having not seen Page during his youth, with Led Zeppelin, I feel like Jimmy Sakurai is about as close as one can get to the real thing. He is an amazing player and his attention detail, and the obvious reverence for the music that he displays makes each show special. The current version of Led Zepagain, with their new guitarist are still quite good and I've also enjoyed them on several occasions. While still a great Zeppelin show, with Jimmy S. they were unbeatable on the tribute band circuit. That Page has given 'Mr Jimmy' his seal of approval, in addition to the fact that he is currently playing lead guitar for Jason Bonham's Led Zeppelin Experience provides extra proof of his incredible prowess. If you ever get a chance to see him perform live, I'd strongly urge you to do so. He will absolutely blow your mind. Carry on with the great music, Mr. Jimmy!
I saw Jimmy Sakurai while he was touring with Jason Bonham. When he came on stage it was like watching Jimmy Page's performance at the royal albert hall in 1970.
You sir are an amazing guitar player and you do sound like mr page, he seems to be a good guy because he loves when other people and bands play his music and not pan them for it like others do. Congratulations to you from Pennsylvania USA
Damn that was actually sweet at the end when jimmy said “you’re my friend.” And you know he really liked the performance cuz he went out of his way to talk to him and the end, invited him his own event, and took his time to sign the cd and personalized it. He usually doesn’t do autographs, which is why he has one of the most expensive autographs in the world
Mr. Sakurai, you are a true virtuoso guitarist. You’ve really brought the music of Led Zeppelin alive with your phenomenal performances. Thank you sharing your experience of performing before the composer himself. What an amazing experience it is to watch this video!
So proud to watch you play zep at the highest level. And when I see that same pride on the face of Jimmy page himself, it just makes me prouder of you. because of your humility and hard work. I’m glad it’s paying off.
*I loved it when Page slammed his head forward on the first big chord of **_Since I've Been Loving You._** You could tell that he was fully and completely immersed in the music.*
Mr. Jimmy for his love for music, hard work and dedication to art, deserved to have his master watching his performance. Great Responsibility! For JP it is a dignified homage that made him happy and honored !! And they have the same eyes oriental!
A standing ovation from the master himself; I can't think of any bigger compliment and recognition for the amazing talent that Mr. Sakurai displays. Thank you for this video! A really entertaining watch for any Led Zeppelin fan. Cheers!
This is really fantastic. To know that fretboard inside and out to do this, and wrap your brain around Jimmy's music and style is incredible. I would like to see him play some Zep songs that never got played live, like The Rover, In The Light, Houses Of The Holy, etc.
What an incredible honor to play for our hero Jimmy Page. You did great Jimmy S he clearly enjoyed your proformance of His performance. Jimmy Page wrote this amazing music🎸 All time greatest!
自分のことのように嬉しかった、鳥肌が立ったよ！！すごい経験だよね！誇りに思います。あなたを
I'm amazed at how gracious a person Jimmy Page is. He's as great a human being as he is a guitarist.
If Jimmy Page takes the time, effort and $ to fly from England to Japan to show Mr. Jimmy Sakurai some love, respect and genuine praise, than clearly Mr. Jimmy Sakurai deserves AT LEAST a thumbs up 👍🏼
2 thumbs 1 for jimmy the other for jimmy
@@xavierares8464❤
I don’t think the money to make the trip is of any inconvenience for Page… taking the time to do it is another story.
he didn’t take the time or effort or money. he was in town for a book signing & simply decided to make a stop
I think it’s Jimmy’s real son
Just have to wonder what was going on in Jimmy's mind to see and hear somebody that looked like him, moved like him and played like him. Imitation is the most sincerest form of flattery.
This man has dedicated his life to paying tribute to Jimmy. He deserves every bit of credit he gets. Not only for having great taste but for being an astounding player.

But missed the first 2 opening numbers, because I had to go through the metal detectors as usual....great show though....keep up the good work J.S. ...wish you could come back to Chicago....with your own band.
He picked the best band to idolize.
veryyy...... sure !! Mr. Jimmy also the great one ....himself.
True. And for real Jimmy to sit and watch your work for 2 hours... Only a real fan will understand. Those 30 years are paid for him for sure.
And able to make a good living doing it .
Saw Page in 1972 and Sakurai three nights ago with Jason Bonham. My life is complete.
Just saw Jimmys band at the Whisky a couple weeks ago. Excellent show and much better than Jason's version with better singing.
This musician is keeping the Led Zeppelin experience ongoing for those individuals who were not able to see the band perform live. The live experience is another important aspect of the music along side the wonderful compositions preserved on record. Just like you would go see a performance of Chopin’s music by a professional pianist, Jimmy is doing the same for Led Zeppelin. And he’s doing it at the highest standard possible that his talent and work ethic will allow. You can’t ask for more than that.
Opening for Jimmy, Mr Jimmy played Rock n Roll? with solo? Mr Jimmy is ambitious, and worthy.
Being a Led Zeppelin nut since a little kid. I was inspired by Jimmy Page to play guitar. I got a call 3 years ago that Robert Plant wanted to do a surprise show in New Orleans before playing an arena the following night.

Jeff Guitar Nelson Nice! What an experience that must have been.

観させてもらったこちらまで嬉しくなりました。ジミーの立場で考えてみると、圧倒的な世界評価を受けている伝説的存在であるとはいえ、自分をここまで追いかけてくれた人が居た事とそのSAKURAIさんのプレイとサウンドの完成度は本当に嬉しかったのではないでしょうか。私はヘボドラマーですが…SAKURAIさんと同じ立場に立ったと考えるだけで眩暈と吐き気がしてきますｗ 配信ありがとうございました。ご活躍を！
全盛期のJimmy Page clone です。誰もここまで到達していなかった。沢山バンドあったけど、唯一無比でLed Zeppelinの美しい神聖さに触れる事ができる。最後のJimmy Pageのインタビューで櫻井さんをリスペクトしていた。ほんといい人だなあ。
That's so cool Jimmy came to see you, he probably got a kick out of it, like he's watching himself 40+ years ago
Nunguem melhor que jimy
You know you're good when Jimmy Page comes to see you. WOW!
Pretty badass. Gotta say.
That’s exactly why he went.
Mr Jimmy looks like Jimmy Page 40 years in the future , imagine what he’d look like after 40 years with Jack Daniels
鳥肌です。
涙が出てきました。
桜井さん凄過ぎだし
ジミー・ペイジの偉大さを
改めて確認できました。
心から感謝します。
ジミーペイジは私にとってギターの神。その神の演奏をここまで完璧に演奏されるジミー桜井さんは、まさに日本のギターの神です。
This was great. I am so happy for Mr Jimmy. He sure deserved this.
ジミー桜井さんのジミーペイジさんへの
真摯なリスペクトの姿勢が大好きです。
日本人として誇りを感じます。

Mr Jimmy this was so wonderful. How you Honored Jimmy Page. You nailed it. I know you made him happy. Thank you .
This is an incredible dream come true for any guitarist who loves Jimmy Page. 😻 Congratulations, Mr. Jimmy! You made Jimmy Page just as happy as he made you happy that night. Hope to see you perform live some day. 👍👍👍👍👍
ある意味近代的なギターテクニック身に付けるより、ここまでジミーペイジに似せるほうが、難しいと思う。
Japanese way of perfecting everything they do.... Hats off \m/
One of the things Jimmy Page would do in Tokyo in particular was to go the record shops to find bootlegs of live shows.

This is true! He loves collecting all the LZ boots. Somewhere online is a pic of him standing with the owner of the Empress Valley boot company. Jimmy loves this stuff and seems to have never been angry with those who are trading his old shows.
Actually jimmy actively looked for boots in a lot of countries, including an enormous amount of time in the uk
Every single Led Zepplin show is unique. Jimmy said LZ was just a jam band.
Page is so humble! Imagine how kind of him to go out to see someone playing and living life as whole tribute to his art.
I felt very happy for both, specially to Mr. Jimmy. After all his dedication and hours and hours of practice, being able to see his lifetime Idol, in person watching him play with a smile on his face, it’s priceless!!!

桜井さんの今までの努力が報われたと言える瞬間だね。
大好きなjimmyさんを
リスペクトし続ける
ひとつの成果がここに
ありますわね。
これからもがんばって
くださいね😍
“Light beer. But non alcoholic ”... unbelievable! Ohhh Jimmy !!! It makes me very, very happy!
lol 🤣
ジミーペイジってどれだけ成功したアーティストのコンサートでも最初の4曲ぐらいだけ観たら帰るとヌーノがインタビューで言ってたけど最後までライブを楽しんでるこの映像はレアだな
ペイジも昔の自分達を見てる感じがしたんでしょうね
This puts a wide smile on my face!
何度見てもSAKURAIさんが本人に絶賛されてるとこで泣いてしまう。頑張ってると良いことあるんだね、、
3:27 they both hit the cue starting the song at the exact same time
Chills when he played Still Loving You. Amazing job. Arigato
ahhhhhhhhhhh! would that be since I've been loving you?
Awesome. It was Jimmy Page himself to see the show. Here in Argentina we call that "The Child's Dream".
Unbelievable. I’ve never seen such recreation and tribute to a legend being played with such skill. A moment in time, sweet perfection and natural flow . Absolutely amazing.
Kudos for Mr. Jimmy for having the balls to "imitate" Jimmy Page, mama mia! I can imagine how this felt:
Jimmy, Im so happy you met Jimmy Page, that was a very special moment in your life.
This guy's got Jimmy Page down the whole nine yards of talent, including his outfits Pagy wore in live concerts.
Bless the soul of that man 🎶🎵🎶🎵🤟😲 Woohoo!
This was a very special video. Bravo to Jimmy Sakurai. No one can touch him but Pagey.
なにより、本人が、最後まで観ているというのがすごい。認めなければ有り得ない。必ず、見に行きます。
あ〜なんて素敵なliveなんだー！jimmyを追求し続けた人、それをjimmyが見守る様に楽しんでいる。
I loved every second of this video❤ Thank you 🙏
I JUST LOVE HIM , JIMMY PAGE DOES TOO. WHAT GUITARIST HAD HIS LEGEND EXTENDED WITH THE PERMISSION AND AS A FAN. Cmon Mr Jimmy is hear to extend the Zeppelin feeling LIVE
Heartwarming, Mr Jimmy does Page a lot of justice.
Those are the best night of you're life and memorable
ジミーペイジは神‼️
本人目の前に演奏なんて夢のようだね。
ジミー桜井さんがジミーペイジと握手するとこ感動する。それからジミーペイジがノリながら聞いてるのも涙でそう。あとこのヴォーカルの人すごい
Wow, an amazing tribute for all the work you, Mr Jimmy, have put into studying Jimmy Page's musicality and stage moves - really quite moving to see and no wonder Jimmy Page showed such admiration. A fantastic story.
Fabulous…. I have been a Led Zeppelin fan for over 40 years, play guitar also only Jimmy Page material. Not to your standards of course but how amazing that must have been for Mr Jimmy when in walked Jimmy Page himself. Quite a night great show lovely to watch❤

Jimmy Pageが普通にいるのすげぇ。
I too am a huge Jimmy Page fan, and with all due respect YOU SIR EARNED THIS!!!..You are by far the best at what you do...good on ya man!!!
Great Guitar, he play as Jimmy Page of LZ era. Great meeting , great Legend
Jimmy Page is an absolute ledged to visit him. It made me really happy to see this.
Jimmy P got a glimpse of what it was like for us regular people…. To watch him preform:)
Congratulations Mr. Sakurai 🙌🤘👏👏🎸 and Jimmy Page is GOD🎸🙌🤘❤️😈
I think Mr Jimmy has all the confidence in the world ,but this night he must have been nervous,feeling his hero watching his performance,but still did a great job.
Incredibile e meraviglioso ❤❤❤❤❤tu il tuo gruppo ovviamente e Page😊🎉🎉🎉
Imagine watching someone be you, imagine how good you feel having inspired so many people around the world. Jimmy Page is such a kind soul
What a thrilling evening this must have been for both Jimmys. As for Jimmy Page, it’s like he’s essentially seeing himself in concert, in person. And he just gets to sit back and enjoy it
*Great--finally meeting his hero. Not everyone can be that lucky*
what an honour having Jimmy Page in the audience ... respect to Mr. Jimmy.
I saw Zep back in MSG in 70's a few times.....then again with Page/Plant tour 94-95, Jimmy Sakurai has studied & captured the essence of JP live riffing, shredding & presence on stage. His uncanny sense of timing, eclectic style, spontaneous energy, stance, approach.....all mirror Jimmy's best live work. It is a worthy lifetime achievement. To meet & be evaluated by the master himself must be incredible honor.....for both men. long live JP....long live Jimmy Sakurai.
ジミーペイジさんが見ている前でギタープレイするなんて凄いことですね
What a gift for Jimmy...!!!
I can't imagine many living legends going out of there way to do that , you are both legends 👍
Amazing. Playing like Page is quite the accomplishment, but to embody his stage swagger is quite another thing.
So many feels watching this. Especially when he nailed the intro to Since I've Been Loving You
本人見てる前で、そのまんま弾ける、貴方はジミーペイジ以上にジミーペイジです。
What a great story. I've seen both Jimmys play live. Mr. Page with The Firm, at the ARMS benefit for Ronnie Lane, in the 80s, and with Robert Plant on their first 'Unledded' tour, and Jimmy Sakurai with his former band, Led Zepagain. Having not seen Page during his youth, with Led Zeppelin, I feel like Jimmy Sakurai is about as close as one can get to the real thing. He is an amazing player and his attention detail, and the obvious reverence for the music that he displays makes each show special.

If you ever get a chance to see him perform live, I'd strongly urge you to do so. He will absolutely blow your mind. Carry on with the great music, Mr. Jimmy!
Seen him in "Jason Bonham's Led Zeppelin Evening," open for peter Frampton this past summer in Chicago.
Officially JEALOUS! 👍👍👍
amazing tribute to you Mr Jimmy that the legend himself would come to see you play. Not something Page does often.
I saw Jimmy Sakurai while he was touring with Jason Bonham. When he came on stage it was like watching Jimmy Page's performance at the royal albert hall in 1970.
大きなリスペクトがないとこれほどまでに「真似」は出来ません。
ペイジ本人もすぐに理解したんでしょう。
来日の疲れもあったはずなのに長時間ノリノリで聴いてました。
櫻井さん最高の瞬間だっただろうね。
最高🎊🎸ジミーの人の良さが凄く感じられました🤗👌🥰
やっぱ、ジャンプでチョップなんだ、ジミーペイジのかっこよさは。
You sir are an amazing guitar player and you do sound like mr page, he seems to be a good guy because he loves when other people and bands play his music and not pan them for it like others do. Congratulations to you from Pennsylvania USA

凄すぎて
泣いちゃいます😂
When Jimmy’s head is bobbing, you know that you have the seal of approval!
All my life I've been a Led Zeppelin/Jimmy Page fan. And you Jimmy Sakurai, and your guitar playing are the closest to the legend.
Brilliant: I Recon both Jimmy’s Loved it, and that’s an all round WINNER.. Love it , Love Led Zep.. ❤️⭐️🌞🌞🌞😃👊
So proud to watch you play zep at the highest level. And when I see that same pride on the face of Jimmy page himself, it just makes me prouder of you. because of your humility and hard work. I’m glad it’s paying off.
*I loved it when Page slammed his head forward on the first big chord of **_Since I've Been Loving You._** You could tell that he was fully and completely immersed in the music.*
Mr. Jimmy for his love for music, hard work and dedication to art, deserved to have his master watching his performance. Great Responsibility!
For JP it is a dignified homage that made him happy and honored !!
And they have the same eyes oriental!
I was really impressed..........not just cos it was me... 😊😊
A standing ovation from the master himself; I can't think of any bigger compliment and recognition for the amazing talent that Mr. Sakurai displays. Thank you for this video! A really entertaining watch for any Led Zeppelin fan. Cheers!
This is really fantastic. To know that fretboard inside and out to do this, and wrap your brain around Jimmy's music and style is incredible. I would like to see him play some Zep songs that never got played live, like The Rover, In The Light, Houses Of The Holy, etc.
What an incredible honor to play for our hero Jimmy Page. You did great Jimmy S he clearly enjoyed your proformance of His performance. Jimmy Page wrote this amazing music🎸 All time greatest!
Jimmy is so humble! I love him so much
Good for you Jimmy!😊
